SOLD Nice 60 in Vancouver, WA

Year

1985

Vehicle Model

1. 60 Series

I was out driving neighborhoods this weekend and saw this 60 for sale on the street. Stopped and spoke to the owner. He's had the truck for 19 years. Third owner. It had ~180k when he bought it and it now has 230k. I looked all over the truck. "Very clean". No rust. Two small dents....one on the drivers A pillar and another even smaller on the passenger side wheel well. A small crack in the dash around the instrument cluster. Because I knew I'd be asked, I drove the truck. Shifts smoothly. I'd replace the tired springs, maybe drop a 5 speed in it (bolt on) and if I wanted to make it perfect I'd paint it. Remarkable condition though for a 35 year old vehicle.

I have 3 Land Cruisers and don't need anymore.....or else......

For sale at 11.5

I don't know the seller but upon introduction his name is Javier and can be reached at 360.521.9933 Javier-bccruz@gmail

I have 2 60 series and an 80, so I need another like a hole in the head, but that is a pretty fair deal...great color also! Just down the Gorge from me...

This is a nice one. Let me know if anyone needs help.

Looks cool. Where is the for sale sign hiding? I would have driven right past it.

Here’s the Craigslist ad:

Weird.

The 3rd photo from above shows the front row seats and front seats appear original. However there is similar photo in the CL add and the seats appear aftermarket.

The first two photos from above appear to be the exact photos from the CL add though.

probably seat covers, I see what you're talking about though. I see a couple more dents. Once above the driver door handle, one on the driver front fender.

The owner mentioned that he had some aftermarket seats of some sort. I guess he put the originals back in. The drivers seat bolster has the usual wear.

Good eye if there’s other dents. The only ones I saw were on the pillar and passenger wheel well rear.

Regardless, this seems like a nice, reasonably price truck.

Appears pretty nice.

Does the driver lower rear quarter panel look a little wavy or dented? Like possibly rust repair or just a dent or just the picture...

Not sure. Went under the truck and sure didn't see any rust. I asked the owner if it had ever been wrecked and he said not in the 19 years he's had it.

I see the dents in both sets of photos. Assuming you are referring to the dents (circled) from the Craigslist add below. Pretty sure the photos from CL are same as ones above. Same camera angles. *2nd picture shows top of 2nd row seats and the border on both photos looks the same.
